EV_USE_REALTIME
done: if no other method takes over, select will be it. Otherwise
the select backend will not be compiled in.
- EV_SELECT_USE_WIN32_HANDLES
+ EV_SELECT_USE_FD_SET
+
+ If defined to 1, then the select backend will use the system fd_set
+ structure. This is useful if libev doesn't compile due to a missing
+ NFDBITS or fd_mask definition or it misguesses the bitset layout on
+ exotic systems. This usually limits the range of file descriptors
+ to some low limit such as 1024 or might have other limitations
+ (winsocket only allows 64 sockets). The FD_SETSIZE macro, set
+ before compilation, might influence the size of the fd_set used.
- When defined to 1, the select backend will assume that select
- doesn't understand file descriptors but wants osf handles on
- win32 (this is the case when the select to be used is the winsock
- select). This means that it will call _get_osfhandle on the fd to
- convert it to an OS handle. Should not be defined on non-win32
- platforms.
+ EV_SELECT_IS_WINSOCKET
+
+ When defined to 1, the select backend will assume that
+ select/socket/connect etc. don't understand file descriptors but
+ wants osf handles on win32 (this is the case when the select to
+ be used is the winsock select). This means that it will call
+ _get_osfhandle on the fd to convert it to an OS handle. Otherwise,
+ it is assumed that all these functions actually work on fds, even
+ on win32. Should not be defined on non-win32 platforms.
EV_USE_POLL
If defined to be "1", libev will compile in support for the poll(2)
- backend. No attempt at autodetection will be done. poll usually
- performs worse than select, so its not enabled by default (it is
- also slightly less portable).

EV_USE_EPOLL

otherwise another method will be used as fallback. This is the

EV_H
The name of the ev.h header file used to include it. The default
be used to virtually rename the ev.h header file in case of
conflicts.
- EV_EVENT_H
+ EV_CONFIG_H
- Similarly to EV_H, this macro cna be used to override event.c's idea
- of how the event.h header can be found.
+ If EV_STANDALONE isn't 1, this variable can be used to override
+ ev.c's idea of where to find the "config.h" file.
- EV_COMMON
-
- By default, all watchers have a "void *data" member. By redefining
- this macro to a something else you can include more and other types
- of members. You have to define it each time you include one of the
- files, though, and it must be identical each time.
-
- For example, the perl EV module uses this:
+ EV_EVENT_H
- #define EV_COMMON \
- SV *self; /* contains this struct */ \
- SV *cb_sv, *fh /* note no trailing ";" */
+ Similarly to EV_H, this macro can be used to override event.c's idea
+ of how the event.h header can be found.
EV_PROTOTYPES
event loop pointer argument. Instead, all functions act on the
single default loop.
+ EV_PERIODICS
+
+ If undefined or defined to be "1", then periodic timers are
+ supported, otherwise not. This saves a few kb of code.
